How does a casual conversation between two friends turn into a full-on podcast with guests from all walks of life? In this milestone 30th episode, Charlie and Jef pull back the curtain and share the origin story of Casually Pro. They talk about how it all started, from collaborating on workshops and swapping ideas in Google Docs to deciding they had to create something that celebrated the messy, beautiful, behind-the-scenes side of professional growth.
They also dive into the why: why conversations matter, why showing the process is just as important as showing the success, and why keeping things casual can still be deeply meaningful. Plus, if you’re curious about the tools they use (shoutout to Opus Clip, Zoom, and Mailerlite), or how they keep the vibe authentic and the editing light, they’ve got you covered.
Whether you're a longtime listener or just tuning in, this episode is a celebration of creative partnership, storytelling, and building something from scratch, with a whole lot of heart and humor.
